Sandbagging is about soaking up all the grease on your face. Use a sponge to cake on loose powder over your foundation underneath the eyes and around your lips. Wait a few minutes for the powder to set. It should absorb the oils and ensure that your makeup stays smooth and matte all day.

Beauty vlogger Wayne Goss created a tutorial for sandbagging. He says that the name comes from how sandbags prevent flooding. “What we’re trying to do is create a dam,” he says.
